Angelina Jolie says that she has had a preventive double mastectomy after learning she carried a gene that made it extremely likely she would get breast cancer. The Oscar-winning actress and partner to Brad Pitt made the announcement in the form of an op-ed she wrote for Tuesday's New York Times under the headline "My Medical Choice." She writes that between early February and late April she completed three months of surgical procedures to remove both breasts. Jolie said that after genetic testing she learned she carries the "faulty" BRCA1 gene and had an 87 percent chance of getting the disease herself. Jolie will follow up with surgery to remove her ovaries, according to a report in People magazine.

News that Jaden Smith wanted to be emancipated from his parents for his 15th birthday so he could get his own place to live swept the Internet earlier this week. The only problem was, it wasn't true. "I'm not going anywhere," Jaden told Ellen DeGeneres on Wednesday, appearing on her show with dad Will Smith to promote their new film, "After Earth," which opens May 31. "The thing that people don't get is that everything at his house is free," the 14-year-old said, gesturing at his dad. "So I can get anything and everything that I want at his house, so I think I'm going to be there for 20, 30 more years." Full story: Jaden Smith wants to be emancipated? You've gotta be kidding
